Notes

"John's father was 58 years old and his mother 39 when he was
born. He was raised by his mother and sisters since his father
died when he was only three years old." "Fourteen years after
the birth of Richard Hereford, married Elizabeth Archer. It was
from this second marriage that the Herefords living in the
United States originated. When Richard became of age, his
father gave him Sufton Estate. John moved with his second wife
Elizabeth and their children to Prior's Court, which joined
Sufton Estate properties on the north. The descendants of John
and Catherine own and live in Sufton Court today. We, the
American Herefords, are the descendants of John and Elizabeth.
Robert James and his son James Newton Hereford are the direct
descendants of John and Catherine Lee Hereford of Sufton."
